Three 'storeys' not to be missed in Colchester

With Persimmon Homes Essex’s Riverside Quarter townhouses boasting so much space, the only question for Colchester househunters is how will they decide to use theirs?
The stunning designs at the development really do take three storey living to an entirely new level as several homeowners are already taking advantage of.
Set in an attractive location adjacent to an open nature reserve, the collection of new homes available at Riverside Quarter offer great flexibility enabling old fashioned room labels to simply become a thing of the past.
Whether you’re after a modest family home or you’re looking for something that will expand with your growing brood, Riverside Quarter is the place to look as each housetype features an abundance of living space to suit your needs and budget.
Neil Sykes, sales director for Persimmon Homes Essex, states: “Regardless of what stage in life we’re at, most of us have one thing in common – a genuine lack of spare time. In designing our townhouses, we have taken that need into consideration. Each home is adaptable and can change with your requirements, just remove all traditional room labels from your mind and get ready to explore your space.”
Persimmon’s Leiston townhouse is just perfect for sociable and active families due to the number of rooms and also the design includes enough space for residents to escape the hustle and bustle of family life.
The Leiston housetype incorporates an entrance hallway, spacious open plan lounge and kitchen with adjacent informal dining area with French doors leading to the rear garden. Upstairs the master bedroom comes complete with an en suite bathroom and the neighbouring study could easily be transformed into a nursery, dressing room or even a second lounge. The second floor plays host to the children’s and guest bedrooms and family bathroom.
The Leiston is priced from £219,950 and plot two is currently available for those looking to move up the property ladder sooner rather than later as it’s now ready to welcome its first residents. Part Exchange and Part Exchange Plus are also being considered on selected housetypes.
Neil concludes: “Although we have branded each of the rooms in the Leiston for the purpose of our brochure, the only limitation to their use is the homeowner’s imagination. At Persimmon we pride ourselves on building homes to last a lifetime, allowing the function of each design to change seamlessly as the requirements of the household adjusts, and we have certainly achieved this with the Leiston.”
Riverside Quarter benefits from being surrounded by green open space, making up the conservation area which Persimmon has worked alongside Essex Wildlife Trust to create. For ease of access around the development and into Colchester’s centre, the homebuilder will be creating a number of new riverside walks, footpaths and cycle ways. Riverside Quarter is also situated close to Castle Park, which offers a host of leisure pursuits for all the family to enjoy.
